Are Bears planning a Cody Whitehair-James Daniels position switch vs. Lions?

As the Chicago Bears prepare to face the Detroit Lions in a divisional Week 10 matchup, there are some changes expected on both offenses.

Not only are the Lions going to be without starting quarterback Matthew Stafford, who has been ruled out with back and hip injuries, but the Bears appear to be making a change on the offensive line.

During warmups, Cody Whitehair was seen practicing snaps in the end zone, indicating that we could see him move back to center and center James Daniels move back to left guard.

Last season, the Bears offensive line thrived with Whitehair at center and Daniels at left guard.

The offensive line has been struggling all season, especially newly-minted center Daniels. So you have to wonder what took the Bears so long to make the switch?

We’ll see if the Whitehair-Daniels switch indeed happens against Detroit when the Bears and Lions kick things off at noon CT on CBS.
